U.S. Embassy Unveils New Non Immigrant Visa Application
December 17, 2009
Cairo– The U.S.
Embassy is unveiling a new fully web-based nonimmigrant visa
application form to replace the current Electronic Visa Application
form. The new form will be available on-line for use beginning January
1, 2010. Use of this modernized form will be mandatory for all
applications submitted in Cairo beginning March 1, 2010. This new form
is already being used successfully at 24 U.S. embassies and consulates.
Visa applicants may access the new electronic form at http://ceac.state.gov/genniv.
The form is available on-line in a number of languages, including
Arabic. All applicants are required to complete the questions, however,
using English characters only. The U.S Embassy encourages all
applicants to begin using this form as of January 1, 2010.
